You can find them on eBay and on the classifieds here on this site. However, shipping to Bahrain would probably kill the deal. I have one here that I haven't installed yet. I'll dig it out and try to get some pictures of it.

hope that helps or i can email the photos

Thanks Blazer Farm the more pics and measurments the better:popcorn:
 
Do you guys find that when you have the spare in the truck on the carrier that the truck leans to the passenger side coz of the weight or is it not noticable ?
 
Nope, no lean. I'm only running 32" tires though on steel wheels. You can't fit more than a 33" tire on the inside spare mount before it hits the tailgate. I'd think the spare and wheel is only about 50 lbs. max. Not near enough to make it lean to one side.

No way you'd notice it! I mean, having a passenger would be more weight ... well, depending on the passenger :haha:

I don't know what the difference is, but I cannot mount a 33 X 12.5 X 15 on the original mount. The tail gate stops about 4 inches from closing.

Im assuming mine is stock. It looks just like the one in the picture that Deuling posted. My tailgate shuts but like I said my back seat is useless because of the angle of that the back has to be in to lock the tire wont let it. Im wanting to build a rear bumper with swing out tire carrier but dont have the time right now so the factory mount has to do.
 
Oh and I forgot to add that I have the tires mounted on the factory 8 in wide ralley rims. Dont know if thats part of it or not.
